The orange-barred sulphur butterflies absolutely love my candlestick cassia. They are constantly laying eggs on the edge of the leaves, continuing the lifecycle.
The female’s coloring changes from winter to summer, while the male remains bright yellow with an orange bar on its forewing, and a yellow hindwing with orange edges. The under surface of the male wings has small dark spots.
The caterpillars are pretty neat – those that eat the leaves are mainly green, while those that eat the yellow flowers are yellow.
